Zune 2.0 Is Official
Are you ready for a new Zune? What? You know, the Zune? Microsoft’s portable media player? Their answer to the iPod? No, Apple made the iPod. The Zune’s from…nevermind.
A Microsoft PR rep has revealed that an updated model of the company’s oft-maligned DAP will be coming by years end. “We have seen the rumors floating around, but we haven’t announced specific dates or details for the next generation of the Zune devices or service. That said, Zune follows the cycle of the consumer electronics cycle so you can expect an update later this year prior to the holiday season. There are three predictable paths along which we’ll expand Zune.” Three predictable paths, eh? Here they are, as per the rep’s prepared statement:
- New sizes, styles, and price points
- New features
- New geographic markets
We’ll see how this turns out. What features would you like to include, aside from anything related to DRM removal? That’s probably wishful thinking already.
